The comb-jelly is well known among along the entire coast. It is often seen close to the surface. It appears most frequently during summer and fall, but can be seen the entire year.
Due to its modest size, the diameter does not exceed 2,5 cm, it is easily overlooked. The name comb-jelly refers to the eight rows of hair-like cilia present on the body, which are known as comb-rows. The rhythmic beating of these cilia enables the animal to swim, and also refracts light, creating a multi-coloured shimmer.
Despite their delicate, almost ghostly appearance, comb-jellies are voracious predators, feeding on fish eggs and larvae, molluscs, copepod crustaceans, and even other sea-gooseberries. Prey is caught by the long tentacles, which act as a net and bear adhesive cells known as colloblasts. The tentacles are then ‘reeled in’ and the prey is passed to the mouth.

Braid Tail Comb, hand carved in light/red Water Buffalo horn. Also available in black horn.

Comb Jelly spreads out to dine- As this comb jelly drifts on the currents, it spreads two broad lobes out like nets to catch food, tiny prey sltick to the lobes, like flies to a spider's web. Then the food's swept by fine, little hairs toward the center to the comb jelly's waiting mouth.
In my never ending search for Pink I found this comb in a drawer in our bathroom.
It was Debs when she had longer hair.
Now it is stuck in the bottom of a drawer.
Only a few more days left.
This hair comb is dressy and playful at the same time and sturdy enough to use daily. I like the different shapes that Chaum put together to create this design. He hand makes each comb so they are unique. The one you see here is the one you will receive.
It is made with solid nickel silver. Nickel silver is a stiff metal alloy of copper, nickel, and zinc. This comb has 6 tines. The ends of each tine have a weld of nickel to create smooth tips so you won't scratch your scalp. The comb has a gentle curve to it so it will fit snug against your head.
*Operation*
These work at holding hair very well like the hair barrettes we make but do it in a different way. This comb will securely hold hair in a French twist, bun, or French roll.
*Measurements*
Comb measures 5.5 inches (14 cm) long with the tines measuring 4.25 inches (10.8 cm) long and the entire comb measures 2.25 inches (5.7 cm) wide.
*Care*
We do not coat our jewelry with any lacquer or other chemicals so the metals on this comb will tend to tarnish over time but can be polished up with any silver, brass, or copper cleaner. Also an old tooth brush and some toothpaste can do just as well. You can also just leave the piece alone and let the metals fade to softer tones.

Handy Fact: This comb actually has a razor in it and people always ALWAYS use it by accident at parties
Comb Wash is a valley in southeastern Utah, in San Juan County. It runs from Elk Ridge in the north approximately 35 miles (56 km) to the south, where it merges with the San Juan River at an elevation of about 4200 feet (1280 m). The eastern edge of the wash forms steep cliffs of Navajo Sandstone, rising in places to 1000 feet (300 m) above the valley floor.
On the western edge of Comb Wash is a series of canyons draining Cedar Mesa. To the north is Arch Canyon, which has Texas Canyon as an upper tributary. In the central section are Mule Canyon, Dry Wash, and the combined outlet of Fish and Owl Canyons. To the south are McCloyd's Canyon (containing the Moon House ruin) and Road Canyon. Scattered throughout these canyons are cliff dwellings of the Ancestral Puebloans.
State Route 95 crosses the northern part of Comb Wash, while U.S. Route 163 crosses further south. Running along the wash is a primitive road, often impassable after floods. Nearby are the Natural Bridges National Monument, the Grand Gulch Primitive Area, the Valley of the Gods scenic area, and Goosenecks State Park.

I love Escher's drawings and this reminds me of his work. This is based on a technique I learned from Karen Combs in a class at the NC Quilt Symposium. I entered this in the NC State Fair that starts on October 16th. The judging is done so maybe I won a ribbon.
The combs that are covered over contain larvae that will soon hatch. This is called capped brood. When we took the hives apart to inspect them we found a lot of capped brood. These worker bees are busy feeding the larvae and capping off the combs.

Combs, known as Kushi (櫛), are one of the most iconic types of Japanese hair ornaments. Their use hit an all-time high during the Edo Period (1603-1868) when the merchants, who held the most wealth but were extremely restricted in what they could wear by the government, found loopholes in the laws that allowed them to wear only a single comb, but they would have them made by famous artisans from the most expensive woods and tortoise shells. The wives of merchants competed to see who could have the most chic comb, which usually came down to shape and material. Since those laws have been lifted we now can appreciate combs being made from almost any material imaginable, with many new ones being made from resin instead of tortoise shell as the sale of tortoise shell is now highly restricted. The majority of the combs seen here are made from various woods, but most contain real gold paint known as Makie (蒔絵) and even inlaid seashells.
The peony one was actually a surprise gift for a friend ^^
